Product Description
The Steelite Vesuvius range is a collection of porcelain tableware finished in reactive glazes, each producing a naturally varied surface that differs subtly from piece to piece. The Lapis colourway sits in a deep blue tone with organic variation in the glaze, which means no two bowls look entirely identical — a characteristic that works well in settings where the table presentation is intended to feel considered rather than uniform.
At 215mm, this coupe bowl is a practical mid-size format suited to plated starters, desserts, pasta dishes, and sharing portions. The coupe profile — low-sided with a wide, open base — gives chefs a clean surface for presentation without the distraction of a prominent rim. Porcelain at this weight carries enough substance to handle regular service cycles without feeling fragile, and the reactive glaze, while decorative, is applied and fired as part of the standard manufacturing process rather than being a surface treatment that degrades with repeated washing.
For front-of-house teams, the consistent sizing across the range helps with portion standardisation and stackability. Key practical points worth noting:
- Reactive glaze produces natural variation — an intentional design characteristic, not a quality inconsistency
- Porcelain construction is suitable for commercial dishwasher cycles
- Coupe profile gives a wide plating surface with minimal rim
- Sold in packs of 12, suited to setting up or extending existing cover counts
- Lapis glaze coordinates with the Amber and Emerald colourways in the same range
The Vesuvius range is well suited to independent restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and any operation where tableware is part of the overall dining experience. If you are building a full table setting or matching across bowl sizes and plates, it is worth speaking with the team to confirm available formats and current stock before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
- It is entirely intentional. Reactive glazes are formulated to respond differently to kiln conditions, which means each piece develops its own surface pattern within the same colour palette. In a service environment this is generally seen as a design quality, though it is worth being aware of if your operation requires a fully uniform table setting.
- Yes. Porcelain tableware of this type is designed to withstand regular commercial dishwasher cycles. As with all glazed tableware, avoiding abrasive cleaning agents and harsh stacking practices will help maintain the glaze appearance over the long term.
- A pack of 12 works well for smaller restaurants or as a top-up to an existing set. For larger covers or opening orders, multiple packs can be ordered, and it is worth contacting the team to check current availability across the Vesuvius range before committing to a full table setting order.
